I am lucky to be part of a local Nature Recovery project in the East of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, which is a 7 hectar chalk grassland field. Today, I recorded this grizzled skipper, which is our first record. Small changes can enable big wins.

In 2023 I filmed aerial footage for a short film narrated by Sir David Attenborough; here is a frame from it over Richmond: the London Skyline over The Royal Star and Garter Home, beside The Thames. A belated happy 100th to Sir David!

Taking aerial photography to a new level.
Passing over Algeria on the @Space_Station always feels like a trip to an art museum. #EarthArt. Which one is your favorite?
